political malaise? "'Solastalgia' was first coined by the philosopher Glenn Albrecht almost two decades ago; it is a blend of the Latin word "solacium" (comfort) and the Greek root "-algia" (pain or grief). Solastalgia, argued Albrecht, was a way to convey the idea of distress caused by irreversible environmental transformation. It is 'the homesickness we feel while still at home', he writes." Where exactly do politicians and capitalists 'live'?

'Change' as an urgent need and source of pressure.

Our individual mindset's need to change - is this the (apt) snowball to change our collective (cultural) mindset?

If the spiritual domain which encompasses Hodges' model was truly at 'one' then no change would be needed 'there'? Discuss.

Even as I clear books, journals, papers ... I have bought a copy.
